De: Adrian Tchaikovsky

Narrado por: Kyla Garcia

In the bleak northern crown of the world, war is coming. The first in the Echoes of the Fall series, The Tiger and the Wolf is an epic fantasy novel by Adrian Tchaikovsky.

‘Addictively brilliant’ – John Gwynne, author of Malice

Maniye hides a deadly secret. Her father is the chieftan of the Wolf clan, whose members can shift into wolves. Her mother was the queen of the Tiger clan, whose members can take the form of a tiger. Maniye can become both.

These tribes have been enemies for generations, and Maniye is an outcast. Refusing to disown half her soul, she escapes – rescuing a prisoner of her father's clan in the process. Broken Axe, a killer, is set on their trail to drag them back to retribution. Her father plots to rule the north, and controlling Maniye is crucial to his scheme . . .

Across the land, other tribes prepare for strife. Strangers from the far south appear, seeking allies in their own conflict. Priests foresee danger, predicting a darkness shall fall across the land. Some say a great war is coming, overcoming even Wolf ambitions. What will be the spark to set the world ablaze?

Reseñas de la Crítica

It's addictively brilliant! The protagonist is vivid and sympathetic – and I love both the story and the world Adrian has created (John Gwynne, author of Malice and Shadow of the Gods)

A classically brilliant fantasy writer, a pusher of boundaries, a great storyteller (Paul Cornell, author of the Shadow Police series and Witches of Lychford)

A brilliantly conceived and executed shape-changer Bronze Age saga featuring a heartbreaking heroine . . . Readers will be captivated by the well-realized characters, splendid action, and a satisfying conclusion that promises more wonders to come (Publishers Weekly, starred review)

This is a satisfying read, a story you can really lose yourself in (SFX)

One of the most interesting and accomplished writers in speculative fiction (Christopher Paolini, author of Eragon and To Sleep in a Sea of Stars)

Very simplified characters

Interesting world idea but the characters so very 1 dimensional and idiotic. Ppl are way more complex.

Long lead in before I cared

Typical of the Tchaikovsky books I’ve read, I was lost at first and didn’t care about the characters. But that seems to be his pace. Now I’m somewhat interested in the story’s continuation, except I don’t like the narrator. Her whiny treatment of some females is annoying as is her ultra treatment of some males.

hold on, don't hit me.

the performance is fine story took a bit longer than I expected to, kept lookingat the time spent. But, I will say wonderful setting, I love the iron age feel,

Great pacing

Plot and character development were well done. Can’t wait for the sequel. Is this 15 words yet?

not bad just not that great

as the review title says the book was okay. Nothing particularly bad with it it jumps around a bit but overall okay. It was a bit hard to finish as the end was getting too predictable. But honestly had nothing else to read. The book wasn't bad just nothing to extraordinary or memorable would not recommend it to anybody but if you don't have anything else to read it's okay.
